This one was a right pain the ass: so demanding and she continued to be demanding right up to the photograph stage.
You may have noticed my last few photos of projects which have been stitched by Elaine (lany-blue) have improved considerably.
That is because Elaine is doing it for me! Isn't she a superstar?
Little Miss Primrose still isn't as she is seen in real life but it is gray and miserable here in Ireland...the lighting is terrible. I think Elaine did an amazing job considering.
So here is the final Little Miss Maid in Colour.
Perfect in Primrose.
Frills, puffy sleeves and a parosol. What more does a wee maid need in her summer garden?
Wow..I have really enjoyed doing these (with Elaine's help). I have two more Christmas designs to get out and then it will be time to released ' A Maid for All Seasons' which I am hoping will be a collaboration between myself and a certain lady who dyes threads.. but shhhhhh....nothing set in stone yet but the designs will be lovely. I am so excited about them. They are of course seasonal ladies and I am so looking forwards to Spring!
Now, did someone mention giveaway?
Oh yes, that would be me!
Well firstly, I am hosting a draw over on my Facebook page for a hand made stocking. Pop over and like the page to be entered.
And then (drum roll please): every single year since I have been blogging I have hosted a giveaway for Christmas..this year will be no exception and boy will it be a doozy (I hope).
That one will be announced a little nearer the time...when I have decided what to put in it lol.
I dunno: charts? Fabric? Threads? What would you guys like in a Christmas giveaway? Perhaps you can give me some inspiration!
Have a fantastic week everyone and thank you for reading my blog. I don't reply to your comments through email cus I haven't worked out how but I do read them and appreciate them just the same!
